The value of cytologic diagnostics in fast intraoperative diagnosis of mediastinal lymphadenopathy and pulmonary and mediastinal tumors [PDF]
Extemporary (EXT) analysis is unavoidable in establishing the tumor diagnosis, operability and the extent of the operation. Alternative approach is cytologic analysis which, because of its simple methodology, provides results even faster.

How to (or not to) Integrate Vertical Programmes for the Control of Major Neglected Tropical Diseases in sub-Saharan Africa. [PDF]
Combining the delivery of multiple health interventions has the potential to minimize costs and expand intervention coverage. Integration of mass drug administration is therefore being encouraged for delivery of preventive chemotherapy (PCT) to control ...

Lymphatics in Lung Disease [PDF]
The lymphatic circulation appears to be a vital component in lung biology in health and in disease. Animal models have established the role of the lymphatic circulation in neoplastic and inflammatory diseases of the lung, such as asthma and cancer, and allowed for the understanding of the molecular controls of lymphangiogenesis in normal lung ...

Glymphatic System: a New Research Direction for the Pathogenesis of Brain Diseases [PDF]
The glymphatic system is mainly mediated by aquaporin 4 on astrocytes and relies on the exchange and flow of cerebrospinal fluid and brain tissue fluid in the vascular space around arteries and veins.

Immunopathogenesis of lymphatic filarial disease [PDF]
Although two thirds of the 120 million people infected with lymph-dwelling filarial parasites have subclinical infections, ~40 million have lymphedema and/or other pathologic manifestations including hydroceles (and other forms of urogenital disease), episodic adenolymphangitis, tropical pulmonary eosinophilia, lymphedema, and (in its most severe form)

Lymphatic vessels in health and disease [PDF]
AbstractThe lymphatic vasculature plays vital roles in tissue fluid balance, immune defense, metabolism, and cancer metastasis. In adults, lymphatic vessel formation and remodeling occur primarily during inflammation, development of the corpus luteum, wound healing, and tumor growth.

Gastrointestinal lymphatics in health and disease [PDF]
Lymphatics perform essential transport and immune regulatory functions to maintain homeostasis in the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Although blood and lymphatic vessels function as parallel and integrated systems, our understanding of lymphatic structure, regulation and functioning lags far behind that of the blood vascular system. This chapter reviews
